Directions:
Directions:
In a medium saucepan combine milk and pasta. Stir. Bring to a boil slowly over medium heat stirring occasionally. Do not walk away from the stove! Once milk comes to a boil, reduce to simmer until pasta is cooked al dente. Sprinkle in cheese and stir until cheese is completely melted. Turn off burner and cover pot about 5-6 minutes to allow sauce to thicken. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
For richer creamier mac and cheese you can use heavy cream or half and half in place of, or in combination with whole milk. For best results, grate your own cheese and use your favorite type. You can use sharp cheddar, mild cheddar or extra sharp.
